Kinetic/ potential energy
The ability to do work.
What is energy?
Energy carried by electricity.
What is electrical energy?
This is an example of radiant.
energy being changed to chemical energy.
What is photosynthesis?
This is a type of energy that travels in waves and can travel through empty space.
What is radiant energy?
This type of energy is produced by the vibrations of matter. These vibrations can move through solid, liquid or gaseous matter, but they cannot travel through empty space.
What is sound energy.
A force (push or pull) applied to an object which forces the object to move.
What is work?
Energy an object has due to its motion, position or condition.
What is mechanical energy?
This is an example of radiant energy being changed to electrical energy.
What is solar powered calculator?
The distance from a point on one wave to the same point on the next wave.
What is wavelength?
Rapid back and forth motion of air or other matter.
What are vibrations?
The energy any object has because of its motion.
What is kinetic energy?
Energy formed when an atom spilt apart or when two atoms join to form one.
What is nuclear energy?
This is an example of electrical energy being changed to radiant energy.
What is a lamp?
This object can take visible white light and separate it into the colors of the spectrum.
What is a prism?
The number of waves passing a given point in one second.
What is frequency?
Stored energy or energy than an object has due to its position.
What is potential energy?
Energy stored in the way atoms are connected to each other.
What is chemical energy?
This is an example of radiant energy being changed to thermal energy.
What are solar panels?
This type of radiant energy can be used to kill germs. In people, it can cause sunburn, wrinkling, and skin cancer.
What are ultraviolet rays?
Animals that use low frequency sounds to communicate over long distances.
What are elephants?
As a rollercoaster car goes down a hill, its potential energy is changed into this.
Energy of the movement of atoms and molecules.
What is thermal energy?
This is an example of chemical energy being changed to thermal energy and then to mechanical energy and finally to electrical energy.
What is a power plant?
This type of radiant energy can be used to preserve some foods by killing organisms that cause the food to spoil.
What are gamma rays?
These sound waves can be used to create images of a patient's body without the harmful effects of x-rays.
What are ultrasound waves?
